How can you create templates feed by an Excel List for names?

I want to create an award certificate, feed it from an Excel list for one
name per certificate 100 times? How can this be done?

Perhaps someone else will chime in..... (as I'm sure there is probably an
easier way)

but here's a start

Add new slides with titles and text from a text file

and
Create a PowerPoint presentation from a plain text file

Our Merge add-in for PowerPoint was written to do exactly this.
And a lot more.
